Family Fun Day at This is the Place Park

For the second year in a row, my parents and the kids and I decided last minute to go to Family Fun Day at This is the Place Park in Salt Lake. It was tons of fun, and all for free!


I think this was supposed to be a horse painted on Ivy's face.



Mason loves this wooden train, so much so that he bullied any other child who wanted to be the engineer. I had to step in when I realized what was going on and I heard another little boy say "where is your mom"?



On the walk back to the car, there was construction going on, so of course, Mason had to stop and watch the backhoe move dirt. He it totally obsessed with construction vehicles. I think he would be a construction worker when he grows up, if it were not for the fact that they have to use port-a-potties to go to the bathroom. Mason hates those things, just as much as I do, and he would rather squirm in his uncomfortableness that use one.

The "horse" on Ivy's face reminds me of when I was doing facepainting for a Primary activity when I was in YW. I started to paint a picture and it ended being a blob. I was so embarrassed. My aunt fixed it for me.

These photos were taken about a month ago. The snow is now all gone, Yeah! I tried to shovel a path through the snow so the kids could get to the playset to play. When Mason saw what I was doing, he immediatley took over shoveling. He shoveled for at least an hour, piling snow into the grey bucket. If the girls even tried to have a turn, he let them know it was his shovel. I'm sure he felt like he was a backhoe, moving dirt. That is his dream job.

Scotlyn's Birthday Party

Image
Scotlyn's birthday is this coming Thursday, but because her birthday always falls around General Conference time, we try to have her party the week before conference. She has been counting down the days until her party all week. It was a lot of fun, and was so nice to have her party outside this year. Every year on her birthday, the weather has been cold, until this year. This is a picture of her a couple of days ago, when she decided she was going to build a hot air balloon and fly to Salt Lake. She packed a change of clothes in her backpack and took food with her in the box. She also had a few toys with her, but when she was ready to fly, she realized that there was not room for her to sit in the box. She kept saying to me, "Mom, this is really going to work. I'm going to Salt Lake, I'll be back later". It was too cute. She never did make it to Salt Lake, but she didn't seem too disappointed that she didn't fly. I love how at this age, they lo...
